NOTE:
On some units only the exterior water service shut off valve will be located inside the lavatory

water heater by-pass system as described in the winterizing section. Another may be for the toilet shut off.

hose and turn on full force. Within the tank a spray head with a multiple holed head will spray the interior

connection. In most models this will place them under the lavatory.
